them to death because God decreed it. God decreed it. Now, the word of the Lord, that which is
0.99
00:01:00.260
inscripturated, that which you and I are called to follow, the secret things belong to the Lord,
00:01:05.480
but those which he has revealed belong to us and our children forever. You and I, as New Testament
00:01:11.260
Christians, we are called to follow the script. We do not have a divine decree that is coming
00:01:18.340
outside of the means of scripture but Joshua did Joshua and Israel were receiving divine decrees
00:01:26.820
from the Lord which he confirmed by incredible supernatural signs and wonders and so they were
00:01:35.120
called to do certain things that in scripture for instance we have the verse that the children
00:01:40.560
shall not be put to death for the sins of the father God said this this is his law but as we

Mosaic law, to bind himself in such a way that he could not issue a divine decree that might say
00:02:01.600
otherwise. However, there's also a practical reason. A practical reason, not just that God is God and
00:02:09.000
he can decree what he wills, but at a practical level, we do not merely have Israel putting to
00:02:15.980
death bad people we have israel putting to death bad giants bad kind of people but not really
00:02:27.140
and this is where i think sophisticated christians they miss the point of the story
00:02:34.280
because it seems too fantastical for us to believe but the bible is very clear in genesis
00:02:42.460
chapter 6 verse 4 that there were nephilim in the earth at the time of the flood and also after
